I've been fat all my life. There was a time when insults about my weight used to bother me. Today, I let it all roll off my back. If you don't like me as I am, then it's your problem, not mine.

One thing I don't need is to have the insults classified as hate speech. Why would I need “government” to label those insults as hate speech and make them a crime?

We have become a nation of whiney wusses looking to government for protection.

No problem calling us tea-baggers, racists, and everyother horrid thing. But don’t call us fat.

Never understood why anyone that’s actually fat would be upset at being called fat. Are we really that pussified?

While women’s bodies were once treated as the property of men, she said, “we’re in a different era now around women having autonomy,” and “that creates deep cultural anxiety.” “When women get to choose what their body size is, and they get to choose what they eat and they get to choose what kind of clothes they wear, this is indicating a major paradigm shift,” she added. “I think you’ve consistently seen backlash from the culture any time a woman tries to stake autonomy.”

So womyn are CHOOSING to be fat (sorry, Big Beautiful Women 'BBW') and that "smashes the patriarchy'.

Whatever.

Women don't like men with guts either.
